Foreign Number
Secretary Ham poured the contents of the bottle into a small glass. Actually, he was really worried about Raya who wouldn't stop drinking. He had also asked for no more drinks, but the person who had been banned was indifferent.
Raya must be sad right now because the holiday program didn't go so well. Arkan is having fun with his wife in the hotel room. Meanwhile, Raya, who is a real lover can only stay silent with a drink bottle. Secretary Ham felt sorry for the sad sight.
"Miss Raya, how about we finish this drinking and head back to the hotel?"
His invitation was ignored because Raya's awareness seemed dim. In the end, he decided to carry her to the hotel room. He is also forced to take the key from Raya's bag.
Arriving at the hotel room, he laid Raya on the bed. The body that was curled up was corrected into a straight position, the folded blanket was extended so that it could cover Raya's entire body. Now he sat on the edge of the bed watching the peaceful woman in her sleep.
If he had met Raya first, they would have been close by now. Raya also won't feel pain to love someone who no longer loves. How much he regretted their destiny that said otherwise.
Secretary Ham wanted to rub the head, but didn't because he thought that what he was doing was considered an act without permission. He decided to just sit there and watch Raya's face shining in his eyes.

The ringing of the cellphone woke Raya who had been sound asleep. She struggled to find her cell phone until she had to get up from her bed. At the same time she was surprised to find Secretary Ham sleeping sitting on the floor and her head resting on the edge of the bed.
Last night they had gone out drinking. Was she drunk and Secretary Ham took her to the hotel room alone?
Raya woke up Secretary Ham and it wasn't long before their eyes met. Unpredictably, the person who had been awakened immediately got up in a surprised manner. More than that, there were things that made her very worried about them.
"D-dare you the one who brought me here?"
Secretary Ham just nodded his head without answering. She don't know what the man is thinking about her now, Raya doesn't know at all.
"How are you taking me?"
"I-I helped...."
Raya took the tissue box on the nightstand, then immediately threw it at Secretary Ham. "Am I so heavy that you can carry me?! Get out of here! Leave me alone!"
Secretary Ham was still gaping, in disbelief at the sudden gesture. What actually made Raya like this? Could it be because of his presence that made her uncomfortable? He was kicked out and it was sad.
Secretary Ham put the tissue box back carefully. He didn't leave right away because he wanted to explain what happened.
"I'm sorry. Last night I couldn't wake you up, so I had to act on my own."
No reply received. Raya is now lying on her back. Such a situation did not like the secretary at all and made her say again, "Excuse me, Miss. I'll excuse you then. Have a good rest."
In fact Secretary Ham didn't leave immediately as said. He was still staring at the back that turned his back. "You isn't heavy at all. It's just that I thought it would be impolite to carry you. Therefore, I decided to support you. Once again, I'm sorry," he said feeling guilty, then turned and walked out.

Lunar helped button her husband's clothes one by one. Meanwhile, Arkan is still busy calling his girlfriend whom he hasn't served since yesterday. Called twice, but no connection at all. Not like usual.
"Raya still hasn't picked up your calls?"
"Not yet," said Arkan with a worried look.
Arkan felt very guilty for disappearing like that. Though, they were supposed to go on a date yesterday and he went on a date with Lunar instead. Only now did he think of finding out how Raya was doing.
Lunar patted the chest softly. "You shouldn't make things complicated. I already know that it's your holiday with Raya, but you're here with me."
Arkan put his phone back, then looked at the woman who was pouting in annoyance. "Who is it really you wanted me and begged me to stay. So you feel guilty about it?"
Arkan was about to kiss Lunar, but the woman dodged.
"Go, meet Raya."
After saying that, Lunar got up and tidied up the bed without looking back at Arkan. Even though she wanted them to stay together? She is also self-aware that Arkan is not really her. Raya's position must be very difficult and she never imagined how it would feel to be in that position.
On the other hand, Arkan only watched from a distance. He shouldn't have thought too much about their pact. Today was inevitable after Lunar chose to step down so he could meet Raya. There are two women injured at this time. How could he be so evil and selfish just for the reason of desire?
"I'm going to meet Raya."
"Okay."
Lunar responded without turning her head. It could be concluded that the woman was trying to act normal. But why did Arkan have to feel that sadness too?
"See you at the apartment."
This time there was no answer that Arkan could hear. Lunar is also still busy making the bed without wanting to turn around. For that, she immediately swung her feet to go meet Raya.
In reality, Lunar wasn't completely indifferent. She glanced at the door that was slowly closing. Her body slumped down to the edge of the bed. She took her phone out of pocket and turned on the screen, there were still a few more months for them to spend together.
Maybe, she should make a little concession to Arkan and Raya because during their marriage, she dominates their relationship more. She never let Arkan go on a date and replaced it by staying with her. Selfish, right?
Shw was selfish at that time before knowing that Raya was actually a good woman. A good woman is commensurate with a good man like Arkan. Now regret comes and makes her want to give a little break in they marriage relationship.
Lunar took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. She has a future that must be arranged after separation as well as Arkan who has a future to marry Raya. The consciousness that had been deliberately buried all this time should have been pulled back. She sure can! Lunar sure can!
The ringing of the cellphone made the thin screen light up again, a number of foreign numbers were listed on it. Who's calling? At first, she didn't want to respond, but there was no reason for her to refuse either and finally accepted the call.
"Hello, Lunar?"
Lunar's eyes immediately widened when she heard a voice from the other side. She was no stranger to that sound. "What are you calling me for?" asked Lunar with a deep frown, implying the meaning of anger.
